Home again, home again...

Hi Friends!

I just got back to Mexico after ten days in Cincinnati and Columbus. It was quite a whirlwind and I'm excited to spend more time with loved ones in Ohio. I was able to see my parents, Mary and Ryan, Will and Jackie, and their daughters, Claire and Eva, my Mimi and Papaw, and some wonderful friends. I got to dance with my nieces, watch lots of basketball (I'm sad about my Muskies!), cheer the Crew on to victory in their season opener against Toronto, hang out with Jedidiah's mom who came in from Connecticut, and hear some great live music!



Many of you know this, but I am moving back to Ohio on June 2 and will no longer be on staff with Back2Back Mexico. I feel like God has called me back to the states to work toward my Masters in Education and spend more time with my family. This was an incredibly difficult decision; I love my life here in Monterrey and cannot imagine doing anything else. I smile when I think that the first job I ever had was my dream job. I feel so grateful to have been a part of this ministry and I know it will always hold a special place in my heart... and hopefully my future!

All this to say, I'm still here for two months, and I'm excited to make the most of my time with friends, students, jovenes, and groups. I'd love prayer for my future- I'm still not sure where/when I'm going to school or where I will work. I feel a little bit like Abraham when God told him to leave, he left, not knowing the future. I hope that, like him, I will be faithful and obedient to God's calling.

Love,
Katie
